Oh my god, this is a bolt from the blue! A true heiress of metaphysics!

"I heard that when you arrived, Qingyun was trapped and unable to move,"

Feng Youdao stroked his mustache leisurely and said slowly, "Haven't you ever wondered why only Qingyun is here?"

Master Yunlu and Master Qingchuan exchanged a glance.

At first, they were only concerned about Master Qingyun being captured, and later they were only focused on marveling at the talismans and formations, and they completely forgot about this matter.

When they brought Master Qingyun back, they realized that the person who fought against Master Qingyun might still be there at that time!

But they've already come back, and even if we regret it, there's nothing we can do.

"Alright, old man Feng! Stop keeping me in suspense!"

Master Qingchuan urged, "Just tell us who it is!"

“Perhaps this fellow Daoist is the same person Zhengming met in Mya Lai and Chiang Hai back then!” Daoist Yunlu thought for a moment and then added.

"Yup!"

Upon hearing Master Yunlu's words, Du Zhengming, the grandson of Master Qingchuan, immediately exclaimed excitedly, "The senior who helped us back then simply stuck a talisman on the sorcerer's body, and the sorcerer was unable to move!"

After they finished speaking, they all looked at Feng Youdao, waiting for him to reveal who this person was.

Feng Youdao calmly stroked his beard again, making everyone else wish they could pluck it all off.

But now that they needed Feng Youdao's help, they could only patiently wait for him to speak.

To everyone's surprise, Feng Youdao shook his head and said, "Since she is unwilling to show herself, it means she doesn't want you to know yet. If I tell her, wouldn't I be offending her?"

"I won't tell! I won't tell!" After keeping everyone in suspense, Feng Youdao wanted to leave immediately.

But the others, having been tricked by him, now surrounded Feng Youdao and glared at him angrily.

Seeing that he had gone too far and angered them, but not wanting to reveal Shi Xiaxia's identity directly, Feng Youdao looked at the minister and pleaded, "Minister, please do something about these people!"

The minister smiled but didn't say anything. He simply handed Shi Xiaxia's job application to her and said, "This has been approved. You can process her onboarding another day."

"Okay!" Feng Youdao carefully put away Shi Xiaxia's job application.

He tried to leave again, but Master Qingchuan and Daoist Yunlu were standing behind him, preventing him from leaving.

Feng Youdao's eyes darted around, then he coughed lightly, his expression turning serious: "You're making things difficult for me, forcing me to reveal her identity. What if she finds out later..."

Feng Youdao never imagined that he would one day be able to use someone else's power to bully others.

Master Qingchuan and Daoist Yunlu exchanged glances. After weighing their options for a while, they could only reluctantly step aside to let Feng Youdao leave.

"That's more like it!" Feng Youdao stroked his mustache smugly before leaving the minister's office.

......

Shortly after Shi Xiaxia resolved Master Qingyun's situation, two major events occurred in the entertainment and high-society circles.

The first thing was that Chu Xunxiang suddenly announced her retirement from the entertainment industry; the second thing was that Le Yizhou publicly stated that he was breaking ties with the Le family.

Although Chu Xunxiang was almost sidelined for two years, her past achievements are undeniable.

Therefore, when she announced the news, it immediately caused a huge uproar online.

Shi Xiaxia was not surprised by this.

She had long noticed that the fate between Chu Xunxiang and Le Yizhou was uncertain, and Chu Xunxiang's appearance was also constantly changing.

But after all the truth came to light, Chu Xunxiang's appearance stabilized completely.

After the news was made public, Chu Xunxiang met with Shi Xiaxia and Qiao Zihao to explain her plan to go abroad and raise her child alone.

Shi Xiaxia understood that Chu Xunxiang's actions were to escape Le Yizhou, and also to prevent Le Yizhou from fighting for custody of the child.

Since Chu Xunxiang had made up her mind, Shi Xiaxia naturally wouldn't try to stop her.

However, considering that Chu Xunxiang might encounter some trouble while alone in a foreign country, Shi Xiaxia specially made two jade pendants for her and their future child, to bless them and help them turn misfortune into good fortune.

At this time, Le Yizhou and Lu Chuanbai had not yet made Shen Qingqing's actions public.

After all, announcing it would affect Chu Xunxiang's reputation.

Cheng Suyi, who was busy with script-related matters, noticed something was wrong early on and asked Le Yizhou to confirm it.

After learning that the show Shen Qingqing had filmed could no longer be broadcast, he looked at Shi Xiaxia with a resentful gaze.

Shi Xiaxia must have known all along! But she didn't tell him beforehand!

Cheng Suyi was so angry that he ignored Shi Xiaxia for several days.

Later, Shi Xiaxia took the initiative to offer to help her find a role, and Cheng Suyi "reluctantly" forgave Shi Xiaxia.

.....

After seeing Chu Xunxiang off, the endorsement that Lin Peilan had promised Shi Xiaxia at the "Film and Television Grand Ceremony" was about to start filming.

After Shi Xiaxia finished her makeup and changed her clothes, and communicated with the cameraman, she was just about to start filming when she suddenly heard a male voice: "Wait a minute, wait a minute!"

A slightly overweight young man strode over and stopped the cameraman who was about to take a picture of Shi Xiaxia.

Shi Xiaxia stopped what she was doing and looked at the slightly chubby man, Lin Peilan's younger brother, Lin Yifan.

After a moment's thought, Shi Xiaxia noticed the two people following behind Lin Yifan and instantly understood.

"Hello, Miss Shi!"

With a bright smile on his face, Lin Yifan explained to her, "It's like this, my sister has now handed over all the endorsement matters to me."

I am well aware of Miss Shi's excellence, but she is not yet well-known, and I am afraid that it might hinder her development..."

Before Lin Yifan could finish speaking, Shi Xiaxia walked up to the two people behind him.

She looked at Shi Qingqing and Shen Yi, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said with a half-smile, "You stole my things?"

What do you mean by stealing your things?

Shen Yi was furious when she heard this. She frowned tightly and said coldly, "It's Yi Fan who thinks you're not good enough and can't take the product to the next level. That's your problem!"

People strive for higher positions, just as water flows downhill. If you don't reflect on your own problems, how can you blame Qingqing?

Shi Xiaxia was so angry at Shen Yi's unreasonable words that she almost laughed.

Seeing that Xiaxia didn't speak, Shen Yi put on an understanding look and said, "Xiaxia, I know you're feeling bad right now, but you're not famous, so what's the point of having this endorsement? Why don't you let Qingqing take it instead?"

Shi Xiaxia scoffed, "You can even talk so high and mighty about stealing things. Your Shen family really has a thick skin. I admire you!"

Shen Qingqing: "!!!"

Shen Qingqing looked pitiful again, tears welling in her eyes. She choked out, "Xiaxia, I know you're unhappy, but I really didn't..."
